    I recently moved to an area which has poor mobile coverage. Is there anything on the market that i can get to help boost the signal?

    I'm currently on Vodafone and have tried other operators but have the same issue.

    Vodafone WiFi Calling is limited to a selection of their mote expensive plans, and doesnt work for text messaging or when roaming. Eir offer WiFi calling on all their bill-pay plans including €9.99 SIM -only. Eir support text messaging and roaming, so you can get free calls anywhere in world when you have WiFi (if we get to travel again in the future)

    Note that WiFi calling needs a compatible handset, and with Android, you will need to pick a make that is supported by your operator and flashed with their firmware. Great service for solving indoor coverage problems.
